Ex-Blink-182 guitarist/vocalist Tom DeLonge is making a TV series based on his graphic novel Strange Times, Variety reports. The show, also called “Strange Times,” is in development at TBS. According to a press release, the show is “about five dirty teenage skateboarders who solve paranormal mysteries while being chased by Deep State government agents.” It’s written by Aaron Karo, who, along with DeLonge and others, is also an executive producer. The series does not currently have a premiere date.

In a press release, Tom DeLonge said, “My love for all things paranormal and skateboarding are sometimes only superseded by my love for offensive humor.” He added, “This series combines them all into one.” In an interview with Variety, DeLonge said “the ideal theme song for the show” could probably be Descendents’ “Suburban Home.”
